  • An Introductory Application of Principal Components to Cricket Data
    Journal of Statistics Education, Volume 21, Number 3 (2013) An Introductory Application of Principal Components to Cricket Data Ananda B. W. Manage Stephen M. Scariano Sam Houston State University Journal of Statistics Education Volume 21, Number 3 (2013), www.amstat.org/publications/jse/v21n3/scariano.pdf Copyright © 2013 by Ananda B. W. Manage and Stephen M. Scariano all rights reserved. This text may be freely shared among individuals, but it may not be republished in any medium without express written consent from the authors and advance notification of the editor. Key Words: Multivariate statistics; Sports data; Principal components; Cricket. Abstract Principal Component Analysis is widely used in applied multivariate data analysis, and this article shows how to motivate student interest in this topic using cricket sports data. Here, principal component analysis is successfully used to rank the cricket batsmen and bowlers who played in the 2012 Indian Premier League (IPL) competition. In particular, the first principal component is seen to explain a substantial portion of the variation in a linear combination of some commonly used measures of cricket prowess. This application provides an excellent, elementary introduction to the topic of principal component analysis. 1. Introduction The goal of this paper is to demonstrate, at an elementary level, the utility of principal component analysis in sports data. In particular, we discuss the applicability of principal components in ranking cricket players. For those new to the game, we begin with a brief introduction, but a complete description of the game rules and regulations can be found on the web at www.cricket-rules.com.
